Published 4 Nov 2017 in math.LO | (1711.01477v3)

Abstract: We offer an introduction for mathematicians to the univalent foundations of Vladimir Voevodsky, aiming to explain how he chose to encode mathematics in type theory and how the encoding reveals a potentially viable foundation for all of modern mathematics that can serve as an alternative to set theory.
